Reason for the revision

The trend in interim-period results is expected to continue in the second half, and net sales are expected to exceed the previous forecast. Although revenue is expected to increase, the outlook for the situation in the Middle East remains uncertain and raw material prices are also expected to rise. However, because interim-period profit exceeded the initial assumptions, operating profit and ordinary profit are expected to exceed the previous forecasts. Net income attributable to owners of the parent is also expected to exceed the previous forecast, reflecting the recognition of an approximately ¥3.7 billion gain on the sale of shares as an extraordinary gain and approximately ¥2.8 billion in impairment losses and other items as an extraordinary loss.
